Small language employment, is small language good employment?

Language recruitment information is also available on Qingdao West Coast Employment Network, and the first one for West Coast employment is **. I know not to let the ** be sent.。。

It seems that both French and Japanese are OK, but Korean is fine.

1. Background.

Minor language majors refer to the disciplines of minority languages, foreign languages or dialects offered in colleges and universities. In the past decade, the minor language major has become one of the popular majors, and many candidates and parents have rushed to apply for it. However, in recent years, these minor language majors are gradually becoming "sinkholes", and students and educational institutions are facing unprecedented difficulties.

This article will discuss the reasons why small language majors have become "sinkholes" from multiple perspectives.

Second, there is a lack of application scenarios.

Minor language majors usually have a very limited career direction after graduation. Although the application scenarios of graduates of these majors are very limited, in the past, due to the emphasis on ethnic minorities and international exchanges, the demand for minor language majors used to be quite large. However, with the changes in society and economy, the employment situation of graduates of these majors is becoming more and more severe.

Third, the lack of market demand.

Nowadays, with the development of globalization and the popularity of English, the demand for talents in small languages is no longer so strong in most enterprises. Although there is still a high demand for minor language majors in the western minority areas, the job market for graduates of these majors has begun to shrink overall.

Fourth, the professional curriculum is unreasonable.

In some colleges and universities, the professional curriculum of minor language majors is relatively simple, and there is a lack of courses that are suitable for actual needs. Some students find that after completing a professional course, they find that it is not very helpful for the actual work.

Fifth, the quality of students is uneven.

The student body in minor language majors is relatively small, so it is common for the quality of students to vary from one to another. In the process of teaching, some students lack motivation to learn and are unwilling to make full use of the teaching materials and their own time. This has also led to a fragmentation of student achievement.

6. Lack of educational resources.

Due to the relatively small number of students majoring in minor languages, educational resources are also relatively lacking. In order to expand the scale of enrollment in some universities, there will be problems such as teacher shortages, lack of teaching materials and equipment, etc., resulting in the quality of teaching of students.

VII. Conclusions. Based on the above aspects, the minor language major is gradually becoming a "sinkhole". Due to a series of problems such as lack of application scenarios, market demand, reasonable curriculum setting, uneven quality of students, and lack of educational resources, the employment situation of these professional graduates is very unoptimistic.

Therefore, these factors should be taken into account when choosing a major, and for minor language majors, we should treat them more rationally and not blindly follow the trend.

Minor languages are languages that are spoken by a small number of speakers relative to the mainstream languages, such as Tibetan, Mongolian, Korean, etc. In the past, learning minor languages was a shortcut to quick employment, because they were often closely related to national policies, foreign exchanges, cultural exchanges, etc.

However, with the deepening of the country's opening up to the outside world and the acceleration of globalization, the use and demand of mainstream languages in China are increasing day by day, and the employment prospects of minority languages are becoming more and more uncertain. There are multiple reasons behind this:

1.Declining demand: With the increase in international exchanges, the scope of use of mainstream languages has expanded, and the corresponding field of use of minor languages has become narrower.

2.The quality of education is uneven: Due to the shortage of teachers of minor languages and the lack of teaching resources, the quality of education for minor language majors offered by many colleges and universities is uneven, resulting in a lack of practical ability for students after graduation.

3.Fierce market competition: Due to the limited number of minority language students and the fierce competition in the market, many minority language students face employment difficulties after graduation.

It can be seen that although minority languages as a profession have received widespread attention in some periods, the market demand has changed and employment prospects have become increasingly difficult to determine. Therefore, when choosing a major, you need to consider market demand and your own interests, and you can't just pay attention to the heat of a certain period.

Small languages are good for employment.

In recent years, the demand for professionals proficient in Japanese, French, German, Spanish and other specialties in the national job market has begun to increase exponentially.

According to the data of the Sunshine College Entrance Examination Information Platform, the employment rate of Russian, German, French, Spanish, Arabic and other minor language majors is greater than 85%.

The employment channels of small languages are mainly concentrated in the following fields: civil servants, university teachers, foreign enterprises and Sino-foreign joint ventures, foreign trade companies, news media organizations, tourism companies, study abroad training institutions, cultural communication companies, etc.

Miscellaneous

Minor languages cover a wide range, including many majors, employment situations, and development trends are not quite the same, and people also have biases and focuses when choosing to apply for the exam. In a survey of 1,526 respondents who were asked "what do you think is the most advantageous language to learn?", the majority chose French, German and Spanish, which are European languages. followed by the Asian and African languages of Japanese and Korean; Then there is Arabic, which accounts for the respondents. It fully reflects some of the tendencies of people when selecting manuscripts and choosing minor language majors.

According to other data, the employment ratio of Japanese talents in various industries is as follows: 50%-60% in Japanese-funded enterprises; State organs (including ***, all levels, customs, foreign trade and economic cooperation offices and ** promotion associations, etc.) account for about 20%; About 10% are university teachers and 10% are Japanese-speaking guides.

Introduction to the minor language major:

1. Learn minority languages.

The minor language major focuses on learning non-major languages, such as Spanish, Russian, Arabic, etc. These languages are usually less spoken globally but are very important for communication in a particular field or region. Learning these languages can help students gain an in-depth understanding of the cultural, historical, and social context behind them.

2. Cross-cultural communication skills.

The Minor Languages major focuses on cultivating students' cross-cultural communication and understanding skills. After learning different languages and cultures, students are better able to communicate with people in the relevant country or region and demonstrate flexibility and adaptability in a cross-cultural environment.

3. Broad employment prospects.

With the advancement of globalization, the employment prospects of minor language majors have become more and more broad. There is an increased demand for talents with minority language skills in enterprises and organizations, especially in the fields of international **, diplomacy, translation, tourism and cultural exchange.

The above data comes from the official website of the university professional network.

1. In recent years, with the increasing frequency of international exchanges, more and more people have begun to learn small languages. However, with the acceleration of internationalization, English has become the language of communication and quietness around the world, and many people have begun to focus on learning English, while gradually becoming less interested in learning other minor languages. In addition, due to the small range of use of minority languages and limited employment opportunities, many students have begun to lose interest in minor language majors, resulting in a gradual reduction in the enrollment scale.

Therefore, the current situation of minor language majors is not optimistic.

2. Secondly, the problems faced by minor language majors. First, the employment prospects for minor language majors are relatively poor, as these languages are less widely spoken and have limited employment opportunities. Secondly, the employment treatment of minor language majors is generally low, and graduates often need to engage in some grassroots work, and the salary level is not as good as that of other majors.

3. Finally, there are also certain problems in the curriculum and teaching quality of minor language majors, and many students lack practical application and practice opportunities in the learning process, resulting in poor learning results. Therefore, minor language majors are faced with problems such as difficult employment, low salary, and poor quality of teaching.

Minor languages used to be a popular major for many candidates and families, but now they are becoming a "sinkhole". The reasons for this shift are manifold. Here are some of the reasons:

National policy adjustments.

In recent years, the adjustment of the national foreign language education policy has caused the minor language majors to face difficulties. The state no longer encourages students to invest heavily in minor language majors, but pays more attention to popularizing large languages, such as English and Japanese. The change of policy has led to a decline in the number of enrollment of minor language majors, and correspondingly it has been difficult to enroll minor language majors.

Job market demand.

Low. The main reason why minor language majors are attracting attention is because of the demand of the job market. In the past few decades, due to the continuous improvement of China's opening up to the outside world, the employment prospects of minor language majors seem to be very good.

However, the reality is that the language skills possessed by small languages are difficult to incorporate into vocational skills, so their value in practical application is limited, and it also affects students' employment prospects.

There are deficiencies within the profession.

In minor language majors, some students are required to learn relatively unpopular languages, and the location of the language makes it difficult for them to find the appropriate resources. In addition, due to the lack of books and network resources in some small languages, it is difficult to learn, which makes it difficult for students to meet the actual requirements of teaching.

Therefore, students and families need to fully understand the status of the major when considering minor language majors, and take into account factors such as policies, job markets, and internal deficiencies in the major. A good major should not only have development prospects, but also meet the needs of the society, so that the major can bring students better job prospects and future development.
